Holidays - December 2007

If you are giving a gift card...give cash instead or a cheque. something that the person would have an option of using elsewhere.
When it comes to Holiday gifts and people literally exchanging gift cards these days it seems ludicrious ..."jimmy gives Jane a $30 gift card to the GAP and Jane amazingly enough gave a $35 gift gard to Jimmy for the gas station! YOOHOO isnt that the true spirit of giving....

why dont they each buy themselves a present and get together for eggnog around the fireplace to talk about it. It would save two trips to the mall soley spent to buy the darn gift cards.
Buy a real present..make a present or go home!!!

I'm going to an annual Christmas party and I'm looking for a good and/or funny gift to bring for the White Elephant Gift Exchange game. We are spending no more than $30. Just an example, last year my bf brought a 70's Penthouse Magazine with a bottle a Crown. I want to come up with something very creative that people would either really want or will make everyone roll on the floor with laughter.

I was in a forced alcohol rehab last year during Christmas. I am thankful to really no other person besides my mother for her support.

Other than that, I am thankful for my own self control. It has kept my freedom for the moment.

Merry Christmas

sunni, shia and other sects of Islam when we all know that there is only ONE ISLAM??
The prophet didn't believe in sunni or shia, he was a pure and simple MUSLIM.



[6:159] Those who divide themselves into sects do not belong with
you. Their judgment rests with GOD, then He will inform
them of everything they had done.

[30:32] (Do not fall in idol worship,) like those who divide
their religion into sects; each party rejoicing with what they have.

[42:14] Ironically, they broke up into sects only after the
knowledge had come to them, due to jealousy and
resentment among themselves. If it were not for a
predetermined decision from your Lord to respite them for
a definite interim, they would have been judged
immediately. Indeed, the later generations who inherited
the scripture are full of doubts

The embers glowed softly, and in their dim light,
I gazed round the room and I cherished the sight.
My wife was asleep, her head on my chest,
My daughter beside me, angelic in rest.
Outside the snow fell, a blanket of white,
Transforming the yard to a winter delight.
The sparkling lights in the tree I believe,
Completed the magic that was Christmas Eve.
My eyelids were heavy, my breathing was deep,
Secure and surrounded by love I would sleep.
In perfect contentment, or so it would seem,
So I slumbered, perhaps I started to dream.

The sound wasn't loud, and it wasn't too near,
But I opened my eyes when it tickled my ear.
Perhaps just a cough, I didn't quite know, Then the
sure sound of footsteps outside in the snow.
My soul gave a tremble, I struggled to hear,
And I crept to the door just to see who was near.
Standing out in the cold and the dark of the night,
A lone figure stood, his face weary and tight.

A soldier, I puzzled, some twenty years old,
Perhaps a Marine, huddled here in the cold.
Alone in the dark, he looked up and smiled,
Standing watch over me, and my wife and my child.
"What are you doing?" I asked without fear,
"Come in this moment, it's freezing out here!
Put down your pack, brush the snow from your sleeve,
You should be at home on a cold Christmas Eve!"

For barely a moment I saw his eyes shift,
Away from the cold and the snow blown in drifts..
To the window that danced with a warm fire's light
Then he sighed and he said "Its really all right,
I'm out here by choice. I'm here every night." "It's my duty to stand at the front of the line,
That separates you from the darkest of times.
No one had to ask or beg or implore me,
I'm proud to stand here like my fathers before me.
My Gramps died at ' Pearl on a day in December,"
Then he sighed, "That's a Christmas 'Gram always remembers."
My dad stood his watch in the jungles of ' Nam ',
And now it is my turn and so, here I am.
I've not seen my own son in more than a while,
But my wife sends me pictures, he's sure got her smile.

Then he bent and he carefully pulled from his bag,
The red, white, and blue... an American flag.
I can live through the cold and the being alone,
Away from my family, my house and my home.
I can stand at my post through the rain and the sleet,
I can sleep in a foxhole with little to eat.
I can carry the weight of killing another,
Or lay down my life with my sister and brother..
Who stand at the front against any and all,
To ensure for all time that this flag will not fall."

"So go back inside," he said, "harbor no fright,
Your family is waiting and I'll be all right."
"But isn't there something I can do, at the least,
"Give you money," I asked, "or prepare you a feast?
It seems all too little for all that you've done,
For being away from your wife and your son."
Then his eye welled a tear that held no regret,
"Just tell us you love us, and never forget.
To fight for our rights back at home while we're gone,
To stand your own watch, no matter how long.
For when we come home, either standing or dead,
To know you remember we fought and we bled.
Is payment enough, and with that we will trust,
That we mattered to you as you mattered to us."

We picked up a board book of this Christmas favorite and found that they had removed this part:
"The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth, and the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath".
What do you think of that?
